It's not even extra. Can find those for the same price from TeamGroup. Though some people need a 2.5" drive and not an M.2 so there's that use case.

Nice to see prices dropping, but I can't help but feel an nvme drive would be worth the little extra.

DRAM affects the effective transfer speed. The read/write specs given for SSDs are PEAK speeds in the most ideal conditions (empty SSD, amortized over larger reads and writes, etc). The actual speeds varies quite a bit. DRAMless SSDs generally provide lower speeds than SSDs with DRAM because the translation tables on where to find or store data are stored on the slower NAND which needs to be looked up or written to at every separate I/O. The more the SSD is filled up, the worse it gets. Also, the internal processing within SSD to move things around for wear leveling, etc., gets slow. The random access speeds really suffer.

The nvme drives don't suffer as much because the protocol allows dramless nvme SSDs to use memory on the host computer. SATA drives cannot do that. Dramless SATA drives made sense when SSDs with dram were really expensive and these brought SSDs into affordable range. That premise isn't as strong anymore.

They will still be faster than using HDDs, so if that is the bar to judge, then it doesn't matter but if the premium for an SSD with dram is marginal especially amortized over the life of that SSD, then why bother with dramless?

If you just sequentially read and write files of the order of 80GB without any random access, then the problem won't be as bad with dramless. The size of the SLC cache will be more critical for writes.

Eufy Homebase 3 can have expanded storage with an 2.5 drive. Good find.

I was literally eyeing the 500GB one yesterday for this same reason.

Not a good price for a dramless SATA drive. Avoid dramless SATA in particular, the worst of all worlds.

Worth the upgrade to Crucial MX500 in the 70s and dropping.

This or Silicon Power? I only have limited budget for my old rig. It's going to be used for mainly storing non essential files.

Either one is fine for dramless. Just buy the cheapest for that purpose.

Doubt it, but that didn't stop me from buying the 500GB version yesterday. Not sure what I intend to purpose it for, but having spare SSDs at your disposal doesn't hurt.
